Instead of asking if /usr/sbin/sendmail causes a delay, why don't jou just SEND EMAIL WITHOUT PHP and see if that causes a delay. If there is no such delay then /usr/sbin/sendmail is not the problem. As for the other questions, why would you throw away email that was intended to be delivered? Wietse
